you could make a great pacman game :)
the thing about this file, is the use of zoom in zoom out, not the gameQuote:

Thing that springs to mind is for use with a map.
Only thing that I would change is that if you keep zooming in you go through the char and then the controls are reversed, obviously because youve gone past the 0 mark and inot the -'s.
Like to see it in a game somehow though.
zoom in zoom ... wow... i didn't knowQuote:

You can also use this camera in a first person shooter. All you have to do is put a startDrag code on it and it becomes the Curser, and then you can have sniper rifles zoom in with different levels of zoom, etc.
you need to give the FLA fileQuote:

"you need to give the FLA file"
If you have to bump a year old thread, you could at least use the word "please", that is if you couldn't just pm the guy directly and ask for it.
Squize.
Sorry, my younger brother (who is also into flash) posted that question while searching for a game engine (I didn't log off my account). Consequently, It made me sound like a total jackass.
Sorry 'bout that. :)
I just didn't look at the date of the post :)
If you run at the wall on the left you run up it...
The point of the swf is that you can zoom in and out (admittedly only about 2 lines of code, not exactly impressive). The collision engine isn't the important part.
And damnit, what is it with people trying to revive this thread?
